BobIwabuchiFan Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Hopefully this old adage holds true as we are seeing a pretty good defensive unit for the Sioux this year...what specifically do you like about our defense this year?

As has been mentioned numerous times before, the front seven are talented, deep and young. Cole reyes is an all American halftime adjustments have been great!

geaux_sioux Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 It's impressive that after losing Ratelle and two CBs the defense is still markedly better than last season. Wasn't sure if that would happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DB Cooper Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Run defense is definitely key, forces opponents to pass and Reyes is doing a very good job of reading the QB and sneaking interceptions in there. That being said, some of the pass coverage is iffy, but improved from last year- that is what matters. Improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we are giving T - Steps enough credit this year with the improved secondary play? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobIwabuchiFan Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 What I liked about the Weber game is that the minute Weber abandoned the running game it was all over but the crying! Tank and the line started attacking non-stop and it was awesome to see them demolish the QB for 7 sacks...I was telling my son this at the first qtr when they were passing willy-nilly on us and saying they will live or die by the pass as the running game was effectively stopped...

BobIwabuchiFan Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 I know they are running a few different defensive front lines, but I really like the Tank line and their pass rush line is crazy fast! We will need the defense to show up again with an injured starting QB and hopefully Baertels will have a simple offensive play list to do a decent mix of short and long runs!

geaux_sioux Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Not sure if anyone has noticed since most of our energy is spent yelling at Rudolph, but the defense hasn't given up more than 24 points since USD. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
